Answer: Thus the pressure of the air in a car tire in psi is 25.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area.

Thus units of pressure can be atm or psi or Pa.

Given :

Convert 1.73 atm to psi units

1 atm = 14.7 psi

Thus 1.73 atm =
(14.7)/(1)* 1.73=25.4psi

Thus the pressure of the air in a car tire in psi is 25.4
